THE BIG STRIKE.

New YORK, February l4.-There
was not much of u rush on the part Of
the strikers to get back to work to-day,
for the reason that many of the com
panies having piers along the river
front have refused to take back the old
hands. The Harlem railroad and the
New York City and Northern, and the
PENNSYLVANIA Companies have given
orders that none of the new hands
shall be turned away as long as they
are competent to do the work, and
refuse to reinstate the old employees.
On the other hand, at some piers the
strikers have gone back in a body,
while at many others the Old hands are
being taken back quietly and indi-
vidually. Mr. Dallas, of the Red ID "
Line, put all his old men at work this
morning. He said that he preferred
his old men to the poor specimens OF
humanity who had been put on during
the strike to fill up the gap. He had a
compact with his men, something like
that which existed between the brewers
ard their men. NOne Vi ulS hiHh "O4'
out of their own free will, but simply
because the Knights of Labor ordered
them out. Attic Clyde-Line docksmany
of the old men are back, but not as
union men.
THE FIRST COAL MOVED AT ELlZABEld-
PORT.
ELIzABKTHPoRT, n. j., February IA.
The first coal that has been handled at
Elizabethport since the strike began
was handled this morning. The old
hands refused the offer OF the Lehigh
Coal and Navigation and the Central
Railroad Companies to go back at ~
cents per hour. A steamer with men
from New York arrived to-day and q
small force began loading coal on the
Lehigh Company's docks. The coal
was frozen solid in the cars and pro-
oress was slow. The strikers keep
away from the docks, and no violence
is feared. An effigy bearing the IN
scription Hang All Scabs" was sus-
pended from a bridge near the dock.

PARTNERS DISAGREE,
Judge McCafferty Discharged by
the Court on the Charge of Lar

Judge McCafferty DISCHARGED by
the Court on the Charge of Lar
ceny.
The case of the State against John j.
McCafferty, United States commits
sloner, for larceny, was heard in the
municipal court yesterday afternoon by
Judge Schoonmaker. Judge McCafferty
appeared in court with District Attorney
Baxter and Assistant District Attorney
Lawler as counsel. Assistant County
Attorney Mum prosecuted for the state.
John F. Fitzpatrick, the complaining
witness, was lawyer, and was formerly
the law partner of Judge McCafferty.
The charge grew out of dispute over
the settlement of the former
firms business. Thursday evening
Fitzpatrick got out search war
rant for certain papers relating to
the suit of Nichols d Co. VS.. DOherty,
which were in the possession of Judge
McCafferty. Learning of this proceed
ing, Judge McCafferty deposited the
papers with the municipal court. Law
yer Fitzpatrick then SwOre out a war
rant charging the judge with larceny.
At the hearing yesterday Fitzpatrick
testified that the papers had been in his
possession on the sixth of January last,
but he did not know how they were re-
moved. He was rigidly cross-eXamined
by District Attorney Baxter, and Judge
SchOonmaker discharged the defendant
without taking further testimony.

His name is Frank Picha. Ask Frank John
ston to substantiate this statement Johnston
was intrusted with the keys to the Jail, and II
he had not been an honest man he could
have set all the prisoners free, seventy tive
in all. Johnston was in on a charge of high
way robbery. The sheriff had not discovered
the cutting of the bars and would not have
discovered it had it not been for prisoner
named lie Croy, who gave the snap away.
The prisoners had been saving at them
FOR SIX WEEKS.
lie Croy was the chief man in saving these
bars and the one 10 give the game away to
Sheriff Richter. Sheriff Richter made no
search or investigation until LeCroy had told
him of it. When Kramer said he caught me
saving these bars, he reported it to the
sheriff. The sheriff came in and said it was
a pretty good scheme. He came to me and
asked me where the saw was. l told him l
knew nothing about it. He gave me ten min
utes TO produce the saw. l did not until he
brought fourteen prisoners to the bars, told
them he wanted the saw or file pro-
severely. Dan O'Brien handed out the saw
and Turnkey Peterson identified it as
Jail property. was punished for this Of

Itwas one thing right along for six days in
the week with no change whatever. In re-
gard to these insane women, saw them run
ming around there with no clothes on. The
turnkeys had her down stairs and she re-
sisted being taken outside and begged for
mercy. They then kept herinside. Another
female prisoner in there was named Dickin-
sou. They were afraid she would sQueal on
them and wanted the court TO pronounce her
insane. called the turkeys attention TO
their criminal actions and they told me to
shut up. for fear the public might get hold of
it. Any one who doesn't believe this can
ask O'Brien or any of the prisoners. They
accused the Y. NJ c. A. of putting saws and
things through the bars, and wouldn't allow
them in the Jail; also the w. C. T. U. No
visitors or friends are allowed IN there, and
every one going in there is accused. No one
but the turkeys put any thing in there and
W - JOHN BOYLE.
THE DIXON WOMAN.
There is another thing that makes
talk. namely, the release of the other
partly insane woman, Josephine Dixon.
This woman made some very serious
statements in connection with one of
the Jail officials, although it has turned
out that she was mistaken in the identity
of the man. County Attorney Egan ap--
peared as soon as Judge Kelly'S court
opened yesterday morning, and in
formed the court that the doctors who
had examined her at the probate court
decided that she was not altogether of a
sound mind, and that if she was allowed
to remain in jail she would very prob
ably soon become insane. 1t was not a
proper place to keep female prisoners
anyway. Accordingly at Mr.. Egan'S
suggestion the court reduced the wO-
mans bail to $500 and she was allowed
to go on her own recogniZance.

A Gray-Halred Man Who Lost His

fl1e III a SdIOOns
A gray-haired man named J. Paulson
came to police headquarters at 4:3O
O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and claimed
that he had been robbed of $2O5 in cash
in saloon kept by James Cosgroye at
No. 379 Robert street, known as the
Little Ryan," Paulson has for many
years been foreman in the employ
of P. Brennan, the railroad contractor,
and recently returned from Montana,
where he was engaged on the extension
of the Manitoba road. PaulSOn had two
checks on the First National bank of
this city, one for S174.S5 and the other
for $50, which he cashed yesterday. He
paid S25 of this to his partner and spent
some small change. The remainder which
was mostly in $50 bills, he carried in
his pocket, when he entered the Little
Ryan" saloon to get glass Of beer. He
says he handed the bartender S. bill,
asked for his change he was invited to
take another drink. There were two
men beside the bartender in the saloon
at the time. One of these men beckoned
him into a little room at the
rear of the saloon AMI when
he entered the two pounced
upon him. He was choked by one of
the men and the other relieved him of
his pocket-bOOk. Both made their es-
cape from rear door before he could
call for help. Lieut.. Cook and Officer
Marion went to the saloon and arrested
James COsgr0ve, the proprietor, and
Harry Dougan, the bartender. Cosgrove
had $40 on his person when
searched at the central station. Paulson
identified Cosgrove as the man who
chOked him while he was robbed. The
other rObber has not yet been
caught, but the police have a clue to
his identity. He is believed to be an
ex-conYict, who was released from
the Saltwater penitentiary this week.
COSgrOve and Dougan both refused to
talk, but it is believed DOugan will re-
lent and become witness against his

Case.
Sheriff Richter, in view of the news
paper discussion, yesterday decided to
recede from his position of absolute 81
lence, and volunteered a statement of
the affair, which does away entirely
with the suspicious which have attached
to his mysterious action. The sheriff's
version is as follows:
1.-The first intimation I had of the
charges against Shields and Kramer was
Oh Tuesday afternoon, when l was iu-
formed by Secretary Hart that the
board Of corrections and charities was
in possession of charges that they had
been guilty of criminal intimacy with
the insane woman. Mary Zens. / was
thoroughly surprised, and began at
once to inquire into the matter. Tues
day evening Secretary Hart, Dr. Dana
and Marshal Campbell, of the board met
me in my Office, and we called Peter
son in, and l questioned him about what
he knew and told him to tell the whole
truth. He then stated that he
